Well said! I hope we get to actually see it in action then.
Hammer of Twilight might share a deck with charged hammer... this card provides removal power, reach and a board at the end of the effect with value being a secondary feature of the card. Costing the extra mana for a total of 5 makes a huge difference even if this card offers more attack.
Thank you very much.
Think of it as a 4/3 weapon, except against midrange its worse because they can trade non-essential minons in to the minoin
eh.
I agree with the people who say that this should be a 4 Cost (1 Overload) card, instead of 5 cost. Almost anything 5 cost or higher has 5+ health, so playing it on curve really doesn't help it's value.
One of the greatest strengths of Death's Bite is that the +1 damage from the deathrattle helps kill off those 5 health minions.
Worth the price??
Are you really asking if a 4/2 minion is better than 2 dmg?
hehehe its a joke! With this card you can trade for 3 of the oponnent. I really like the card, but not the epic rarity.
You could do this type of compare thing with so many different cards.
I feel like this card would have been a bit better with some overload mana redistribution
..at least they didn't put overload on it.
that is the bad thing. If it was 4 mana weapon with 1 mana overload it would be much better,
absolutely ! but . T4 Charged Hammer ;T5 Hammer of Twilight
So skip turn 4 to play a 4 mana shadowform. Yah, I am sure you won't get tempo'd out like crazy! I mean shadow priests do it all the time, while only skipping turn 3, and they have amazing board clears (unlike shaman), Yah that will work...
You just took the time to make a list of all good 4 health minions in the game just to 'prove' that this mediocre weapon is actually good?
Dude.... Get a hobby?
if i will play hunter i'd love to see shamans face going into my taunt misha. Wyrmrest Agent, Armorsmith, Frothing are 2 drops. Clearing 2 drops on turn 5 feels bad man. Making 2 swings to clear single minion is suicidal. Basicaly the cases you described doesn't make sense except Flamewaker and Blackwing Corruptor (still corruptor will have it's battlecry value and deal 5 damage to your face which is huge, same as heckler)
I thought hearthstone and everything surrounding it was a hobby? What are you doing here?
4 damage is bad. The only good target besides 2-3 drops for it is Azure Drake. Emperor Thaurissan, Sylvanas, Druid of the Claw, Ancient of Lore, Tuskar Jouster, Sunwalker (probably return in standard), etc. The 5 damage mark is a LOT more valuable than 4. People compare it to Death's Bite but forget that the second swing of Death's Bite actualy deals 5 damage with deathrattle whirlwind which is a HUGE difference bro's aswell as a 1 less mana cost. That is a big deal to kill belchers, thaurissans, etc with one-shot. I bet you will often see how Shaman's will need that 1 extra damage after using this weapon.
I'm not saying though it's bad. The deathrattle effect is realy good. You remove enemy minion with weapon and instantly gain a threatening board presence for free (4 damage minion is great).
Overal very nice hammer.
